Now, I also think it’s important for you to know the rules that I base my eating habits with.
Once you are a picky eater for a long time, you find it easiest if you can categorize your food preferences to help the people around you
My Food Rules:
1. 1. There are foods I plain ol’ don’t like. And I don’t like anything that they are in. Also, I cannot be fooled. I don’t like Peña Coladas, and yes I can taste the coconut. Ask my dad, who made me a banana/chocolate shake when I got braces (it didn’t get eaten).
a. Bananas
b. Coconut
c. Orange
d. Coffee
e. Peas
f. Ground beef (exception: hamburgers)
2. 2. I don’t like my foods mixed together. This is a hard one for people to understand, the see everything as “mixed together” so for those people, no I do not mean pasta with chicken. It mainly applies to casseroles or things with mixing textures (see Rule 3).
Exceptions:
a. I like everything in the mixture, example: salad
b. I can separate everything and eat it separately, example: King Ranch Casserole
3. 3.I don’t like mixing textures. This is the pentacle rule by which everything else stands. This is about eating something consistent, and biting down on something totally different. That is gross. I will eat an onion by itself but I will be damned if I want that crunchiness in the middle of my perfectly consistent bite.
Those are my general rules, and if a new food breaks one of the rules, I won’t try it.
